Well the media of course. But they've been saying it for most of this century so let's not take any notice of them. Oh, the coach might have hinted at it a couple of weeks ago, but if a week is a long time in footy, a fortnight ago is now ancient history. Probably the thought has crossed the minds of some of the players too, and in the not too distant future -whether in one week or three - it will no doubt become a reality for some.
